Cooking Momofuku at homeOctober 2, 2010 My mom is obsessed with keeping a stocked freezer, but I guess I don’t really take after her, because my freezer tends to be relatively empty, aside from random containers of stock/ramen broth, frozen dumplings and pierogi.

I tell myself it’s because of ease and convenience, but really, I just love the taste of frozen pockets filled with deliciousness.

Before I would just cook the same things over and over but since I started my blog several years ago, I’ve always been looking for different ways to cook things up.
